Summary/Table of Content Slide in Powerpoint 2013

microsoft-powerpoint

I have been trying to create a slide for a 100+ slide deck. Earlier they used to have an automatic summary slide option in the slide sorter view. But I am unable to find it in Powerpoint 2013.

I am aware it was taken out in 2010,2007 but it is not mentioned anywhere that it is unavailable in 2013.
